I will say this very slowly for Senator Wong’s benefit: while the matter is being investigated and while it has not yet been established, it is hardly appropriate for me to comment, on behalf of the minister, about events and matters that have not yet been established. I am aware that Senator Wong would like me, and invites me, to enter into this speculation together with her. I do not accept the proposition upon which she bases her question, in the absence of a concluded piece of evidence.
